Raiding the Voidspire – Week 12 & 13

I was on vacation but apparently there was some Voidspire raiding in Week 12 (4 down, then wipes on Vanguard).

Week 13 was 5 down in Voidspire, then 5 Crown wipes.

Only 2 out of 4 raids happened, which kinda sucks. First 2 weeks I missed as a tank and meh.

Seems I forgot to post about M+.

We’re at ~3180 rating, missing one for Resil 14, having timed one 15. I finished my “tank all 10s” quest on Brewmaster and Blood DK, the Vengeance Demon Hunter is missing 1 and the Guardian is missing 3. The Protection Paladin has not tanked anything close to a 10, or no M+ at all, not sure at this point.

Goals for M+

Unfortunately we’ve still not hit 3000 rating but I guess we could’ve had it with a little more careful planning (or not wiping once in a 14 SEAT). Either we time like 2-3 more 13s and we have it, or 1-2 14s. That would be prio #1 but scheduling seems harder than usual this tier. Also no clue how we should go towards all 16s for the 3400 mount…

I’m working on having tanked every +10 at least once on all tanks. Warrior is done with all 12s – DH, DK, and Monk are missing 2-5 of them, although I’ve surely tanked more than 8 on each. The Guardian Druid is Level 90, with iLvl 257, so in theory ready to go, and the Paladin (which I don’t particularly enjoy as Prot currently, but having a blast as Ret) is 277ish, so could easily tank them as well, I guess. That goal is currently much more fun for me, especially as the 3k feels so much easier than in the past seasons.

On the other hand I’ve done exactly 2 +10 keys as a DPS, on Ret. Unholy isn’t my jam currently – and I’ve not tried healing, although the Shammy got the last 276 piece meanwhile. We’ll see.

Raiding the Voidspire – Week 9

Sunday was the usual Heroic Dreamrift, then Voidspire reclear. Had some problems on dragons, but got at least some tries in for Paladins, now at 14 wipes and 30% or so. Really hoping we’re just extending when we have them down.

Tuesday we killed the Vanguard on the 16th pull (30 overall or so) then looked at Crown of the Cosmos on Heroic. 6 wipes, not a lot of progress – but we’re 6/9 now.

This was the week where we got the Voidcores to upgrade our stuff by 10 levels – and we had a public holiday with bad weather on Thursday, so I got to grinding. First I upgraded my main’s weapon to 298, then (because I was lucky enough to bonus roll a Mythic 2h in my first +10) I did the same for my Brewmaster Monk, and then I also bonus rolled a Mythic 2h on my Blood DK, so that also went to 298. The Vengeance Demon Hunter already had one Mythic weapon from the Vault, and also bonus rolled a 2nd one (it starts to sound unrealistic), so 10 Voidcores later she’s dualwielding 298 weapons as well. I have now successfully tanked (and timed) a +10 (or higher) on 4 different tanks (Warrior, DH, DK, Monk) and at least tanked one +2 on my Paladin. Only the Druid missing (sitting at 250, should be enough for a low key). So the goal is definitely to tank at least a couple +10s on every tank class this season.

The gearing is kinda weird anyway this season. The moment I hit the “all slots to 276” achievement (aka 6/6 Heroic) on my main, I could use my saved up Hero Crests on some alts. That was late last week and now I have 5 alts at 272 and higher, nearly surpassing my main on the BDK. The Shaman has not seen a single M+ or raid higher than LFR and yet has only 1 slot missing to full 276 Heroic Gear.

Raiding the Voidspire – Week 8

On Sunday we did the current routine of Chimaerus Heroic (still 1 wipe), then March on Normal, then the first 3 in Voidspire (no wipes) and then a 2nd kill of the dragons on the sixth pull.

Tuesday people apparently didn’t want to go wiping so we did a full normal reclear of the remaining 7 bosses, boo.

In M+ we managed to get all dungeons except Windrunner Spire to 12 (and a 13 Pit of Saron), so close to resilient keys.

Raiding the Voidspire – Week 7

On Sunday it was time for Chimaerus again, first Heroic (3 wipes, ugh), then Normal. Then a quick visit to March Normal and then a reclear of the first 3 in Voidspire on Heroic. So that’s 4 for the Vault already, but now wipes on Dragons on the program for Tuesday.

The Dragons actually died, around pull 21 (7 wipes today), although we only had 10 people. Then we got some 10 tries in on Lightblinded Vanguard, none better than 76% and I messed up quite a few tank swaps. In my defense the addons seemed to show really weird timings and I had to fiddle with settings between tries.

For M+, we timed a 12 and a 13 this week after getting all 8 portals last week (on Warrior). I’ve also tanked a few 10s (and one 11) on my DH and I’ve done a couple 6-8s on my Blood DK. Season of the tank I guess.

Raiding the Voidspire – Week 6

On Sunday we cleared Chimaerus and March on Quel’Danas on Normal (1 wipe on Belo’ren), then back to Heroic Voidspire and 3 bosses died.

On Tuesday we started with Chimaerus Heroic, who died on the second pull (5 wipes overall), then we cleared Voidspire Normal with zero wipes, then tried the two dragons again on Heroic, but not a lot of progress in 5 wipes.

I’m noticing that I keep missing to write these posts but juggling 3 instances is a bit weird and progress was uncommon this time as well. We’re 4/9 Heroic now, which feels a little slow, but not terrible I guess. When the Voidspire Normal reclears stop we should have more time anyway.

Raiding the Voidspire – Week 5

On Sunday we started with Chimaerus because everyone wants that trinket, then we went back to March on Quel’danaas. We oneshot all 3 of these, then we went into Voidspire Heroic.

After a 11% wipe and a meh 0.5% wipe we downed Imperator Averzian, and Vorasius also died on the third pull. Then we were out of time and only managed two pulls on Salhadaar.. but 25% looked promising.

Tuesday saw Saladhaar die on the third pull ( overall), then 8 wipes on Vaelgor & Ezzorak and 4 wipes on Chimaerus Heroic.
